Cesar Peixoto names first ever starting XI as Wolves boss for Port Vale test The Wolves team taking on Port Vale in the Carabao Cup. Cesar Peixoto has named a strong starting XI for his first competitive game as Wolves boss. As they take on Port Vale in the first round of the Carabao Cup at Molineux, the head coach has named an unchanged XI from the team that beat Racing Santander 3-0 in the final pre-season friendly. That includes a start for Kieran Trippier, while club hero Raul Jimenez has made the bench following his return to the club. Jimenez has not featured in pre-season due to being given an extended break following the World Cup, where he scored three goals for Mexico. Jose Sa has also made the bench after going away with Portugal to the World Cup. Wolves: Bentley, Trippier, Mosquera, Toti, H.Bueno, Andre, Munetsi, R.Gomes, Lopez, Mane, Armstrong. Subs: Sa, Djiga, Krejci, Tchatchoua, Lima, Abbey, Doyle, Chirewa, Jimenez.
